romney disagrees with mr. mourdock's rape comments, but the romney campaign does not want this ad to be taken down and they do not rescind their endorsement, which means that it is not just richard mourdock anymore who has to worry about people being able to vote right now with those words about god and your rape ringing in your ears. the democratic party is making sure that that is not just a richard mourdock problem, the democratic party is doing their best to make it a mitt romney problem and a broadly a republican party problem. >> this fall, i'm supporting richard mourdock for senate. >> even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that god intended to happen. >> this is a man who i want to see in washington, to make sure that we cannot just talk about changing things, but actually have the votes to get things changed. >> even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that god intended to happen. >> we've got to get this guy elected in the

governor romney surging. he's nearly even with the president among registered female voters, a number that puts the proposed gender gap into question here. let's bring in our panel. beth, lynn, good afternoon to both of you. beth, let me show you one more number from your poll if i could put it up. president obama's 16-point lead with women on the economy. now a four-point disadvantage. how worried should democrats be? >> very worried. if this is actually going to bear out, it's a disaster for the democratic ticket. president obama underperforms with men, particularly white men at such a large degree that he needs to overperform with women. the obama campaign is really questioning these polling figures saying that the president is still well ahead with women. it's unclear. we are seeing that trend in basically all the polling across the board. that he's lost a lot of ground with women since the first debate. the president has to make up that deficit with women if he's going to win. there is no other way. his

the romney campaign quickly saying mourdock's comments don't reflect romney's views. they do reflect his running mate's views. this candidate who romney endorsed mourdock in a television ad is playing in indiana now. although they have disavowed ha statement, they have not disavowed the candidate. does this present a problem with romney's efforts to close gender gap especially when it comes to public trust? >> well, governor romney's done a great deal to close the gender gap beak because women are concerned about jobs and the economy. he has a tremendous record in the private sector on creating jobs in the economy but on this particular case, he's made it quite clear he disavows the statement and he also is very strong on his commitment to life. he only supports abortion in cases of rape, incest. women of this country are not monolithic voters. their number one concern is jobs and the economy. they're greatly concerned with the debt and president obama doesn't have the answers and the policies to create jobs and turn the economy around and the debt, has grown to $16 t

romney, right? why on god's great campaign trail would mitt romney get up in front of 12,000 people in ohio and tell them the auto bailout actually hasn't helped you at all. your jobs making jeeps are going to china. i read it somewhere. where's this story he said he read somewhere? we found it. here it is. he was apparently trolling the nether regions of the right-wing press. he found it on a washington examiner blog post, which reported, quote, jeep, an obama favorite, looks to shift production to china. a move that would crash the economy in toledo. is this true? this is not true. this is a conservative blogger's misreading of a bloomberg report that actually was reporting this news for jeep. the bloomberg report was that global demand for jeep has risen to the point where the company can sell more of them in china and it wants to build jeeps for china in china. this is good news for an american company, not bad news. they are not shipping american jobs overseas. this doesn't mean less work for a

the question is, which romney are voters going to get? which romney would they elect. the liberal one who ran for senate in '94, the pragmatic governor, the candidate of this year's gop primary? all politicians change positions over time. his changes raise questions over his core principles and make the details all the more troubling. would he stand-up to his own party, especially house republicans who undercut ohioan john boehner's attempts. how do you respond to that? >> look at his record. the guy created jobs. he's a job creator. we need that. jobs are the greatest moral issue when people are working, families are stronger. number two, he was governor of massachusetts. they went from deficits to surpluses from job loss to job creation. then you look at the olympics where he was a pure leader. look at his history. it tells you who he is. he's pragmatic, no question about it. he's also tough, firm and understands job creation. in terms of people not getting him, the first debate, i have never seen a debate have this much impact. the first debate gave people the chanc
